    "loaded with every option" but no A/C.
    Electra coupe is the cat's pajamas in my book; way more interesting than a convertible.

    STAGE III Lost Experimental 455-4 Bolt Main Block.

    Uh huh "Every option available"? No Twilight Sentinal,No Wonderbar radio,no power leather bucket seat(s) no storage console (bucket seat cars) no Super Deluxe hubcaps (chromed fins & chrome center "Crown", posi(?) afore mentioned a/c,power vent Windows? Okay, I will quit.
    Would love to use as a daily driver & man do I have the parts! :)
    Kinda wondering why there is no Electra 225 ribbed lower aluminum panels & can't read if it says Electra 225 on the center deck lid call out? I might have to measure this one for the full 225 inches

    It's a standard Electra, not a 225. They didn't have a 225 in a coupe.

    These time capsules do not come along that often ... and these years of Buicks are gaining popularity.

    Sure looks like give that car a healthy bath and figure out the drive train and it would make a very nice cruise vessel. Looks very clean and original. I wonder if the removed master cylinder is still around. I love white cars with blue interiors too.
